Bi-directional recoil containment and double strike prevention system

摘要

An active soft recoil control system that provides a bi-directional recoil containment and double strike prevention, which improves recoil force management, reduces the potential for “short” rounds, results in a more compact and lighter weight weapon, and increases the uniform performance of the heavy weapon at temperature extremes and steep cants. Furthermore, the present system provides for a mechanism that enables safer firing pin retraction and reduces the potential for unintentionally striking the primer and initiating the round during misfire operations.
